AMON, McDONOUGH TO PLAY VOLLEYBALL AT CALDWELL
7-23-09
CALDWELL, N.J. - The Caldwell College volleyball team is adding two
student-athletes to the program this fall, head coach Megan Hrbek
announced. Maddy Amon, a libero from Louisville, Ky., and Susan
McDonough, an outside hitter from Saline, Mich., will join 12 returning
players from last year's squad that went 18-11 and captured the Central
Atlantic Collegiate Conference North Division crown.
"We are excited to bring in two quality ball-control players like Maddy and
Susan," Hrbek said. "They will instantly improve our passing and defense,
which were areas that we needed to address."
Amon attended Bishop Moore Catholic High School in Orlando, Fla., for her
junior and senior years and was named first team all-Central Florida in
2008. She also was selected her team’s most valuable player as a senior. A
two-year captain at Bishop Moore, Amon helped her club team, Inland
Volleyball Club, capture the 2009 Central Florida championship and qualify
for Junior Olympic Volleyball Championships.
McDonough received all-state honorable mention as a senior co-captain at
Saline High School. Also a defensive specialist, McDonough earned all-region
and all-conference honors as a junior and senior. She helped Saline win a
conference title in 2006 and tie for the conference crown in 2007. McDonough
also plays for Huron Valley Volleyball Club, which placed second at the East
Coast Championships in 2008.
The Cougars begin the 2009 season on Sept. 4 at the University of Bridgeport
Tournament in Bridgeport, Conn.
